Site Overhaul!

Welcome, friends, to my brand new site! After realizing that my former blog theme was no longer supported on WordPress and therefore failing to load images properly, I upgraded to a new theme and have spent the afternoon putting together a more robust and well organized homepage for you all to enjoy. There are some … Continue reading Site Overhaul!

Hourly Comic Day 2013

I didn’t come into the Studio this weekend so I had no scanner access, but here, better late than never, are this year’s Hourly Comics! (You can pick up on my salami jokes by reading last year’s installment right here.) Busy, busy times, but a whole lot of fun.

Sketchbook Update

This week I revisited an exercise given to me by my awesome mentor Eben Matthews almost ten years ago. In one of our early meetings Eben asked me what my least favorite thing to draw was.

Hourly Comic Day 2011 (AND OTHER MEASUREMENTS AS WELL)

Hey world! This post is chock full of news. CHOCK FULL. STAND BACK. First: did some hourly comics for Hourly Comics Day this year.

I can’t feel my legs right now, of course, but that’s a small price to pay. *Basically, to clarify the … Continue reading Got That Old Fashioned Monotype Blues

Sunshine

A watercolor postcard I doodled many moons ago just resurfaced in my pile of outgoing mail. Thought I’d share for the sake of getting some color in here for a change — though my scanner doesn’t play nice with the vividness of the colors. I’d like to start doing these regularly, since I have a … Continue reading Sunshine

Spring

Planted 80 spring and summer bulbs in the garden yesterday. Happy.

Filler!

A couple quick comics from the past few weeks to keep you all entertained while I scrabble around for scans and photos to put in the big Fragment wrap-up post. Also: submitted my registration info for Stumptown this year! Trepidation! Nobody hears back until December, but that’s no reason not to use it as impetus … Continue reading Filler!

Marker Doodles

Dicking around with greyscale markers this afternoon. Let’s hear it for mismatched eyeballs!
